  1. Everyday they to go into raffa the civilians and children find there's elves caught in the cross fire pray for children sending prayers 😢

  2. nothing's gonna change , they are going to attack rafah 10's of thousands of innocents r gonna die and the west will protect the jews from any real consequence for their action. And the media will forget such a thing even happened in few weeks the jews will go back to the poor innocent holocaust survivors who can do no harm.

  3. Chynese from asia here but not from chyna

    ….i support Netanyahu with all my heart….

    Zeeik Haie!!!!

  4. It will take a few weeks, Yahoo, says. How many civilians will be left standing? The West is complicit in the carnage, particularly los Americanos, all this public posturing, by these illustrious nations mean mothing, this is all for public consumption. Behind close doors, they tell Yahoo he can do whatever he wants, the weapons will arrive in number and on time.

  5. Natanyahu safe and his family safe and his son enjoying in America.dieing IDF…idf dying for natanyahu poltics and court cases

  6. isn't it clear by now? despite all their claims, their actions shows otherwise. If not for the international pressure, they would have killed more than 100k by now

  7. Free Free Women Minds and Bodies Must be Free From Slavery Butchery of the Islamic Muslim Arab Palestinian Religious Persecutors Thirty-seven percent of Arab women are reported to have experienced some form of violence in their lifetime, though sources indicate that the true percentage is actually higher. Two practices that fall under the broad and ugly umbrella of gender-based violence and control are female genital mutilation (FGM) and child and forced marriage (CFM), which together affect tens of millions of Women 0:32

  8. Israel is an occupying military force so has legal responsibilities toward the civilians. An occupying force blocking food is a war crime. Politicians need to start calling this what it is, a war crime.

  9. If Hamas are terrorists cause they resist and killed 1200 then Israel is 3 times their terrorists cause they killed over 31,000 wounded over 75,000 and starving half a million. Israel and US think they only determine who terrorists are.
